"Give ’em a wreck at the finish and they’ll bring a friend," as Richard Lee Petty of Level Cross, North Carolina, observed 30 years ago, in one of the truest things ever said about any sport. That white-knuckle last lap, even racing for 24th place, is NASCAR’s distinguishing product, and NASCAR Heat Evolution brings it to every race. I would bring a friend to NASCAR Heat Evolution.NASCAR Heat Evolution was reviewed using a physical retail PS4 copy provided by Dusenberry Martin Racing.

It's not an unqualified success, but it's the kind of points racing that gets the job done and which helps build toward that championship. It has that competitive spirit that a racer has to have, and that's not something that can be taught – it has to be inside of you the whole time. This review pertains to the PS4 and PC versions of the game.

I was surprised at how much fun the career mode could be for someone who doesn’t follow the sport religiously. Monster Games has reinvigorated the series they began, and it is a solid product for someone looking for authentic NASCAR racing. It’s a shame the online multiplayer is lacking, and I would want to see what the developers could do with a more robust game engine.Note: NASCAR Heat Evolution was reviewed on PlayStation 4.

Heat Evolution captures the essence of Nascar, it just doesn't do it with any excitement making the experience feel empty. I did find it emulated the event well and it's a good base to build into the future with.

NASCAR Heat Evolution is an okay re-introduction to the sport. It’s not terrible but yet, it’s not great. I am excited to see the future improvements and additions they make for a sequel, as this game has the potential to be wonderful. After such a long hiatus, you have to start somewhere.

Poor graphics and presentation disguise a really strong core racing experience as NASCAR makes its gaming bow on current-gen consoles.W
